Core Workflows

1. List and Search Forms

Retrieve all forms created by the authenticated user with search, filtering, sorting, and pagination.

Tool: JOTFORM_GET_USER_FORMS

Key parameters:

• search -- search query to filter forms by name or content
• limit -- number of forms to return
• offset -- offset for pagination
• orderby -- field to order by
• sorting -- sorting direction: ASC or DESC
• folder -- filter by folder ID

Example prompt:

"List all my Jotform forms that contain 'feedback' in the name, sorted by most recent"

---

2. Get User Account Details

Retrieve details about the authenticated user including account type, usage statistics, and limits.

Tool: JOTFORM_GET_USER_DETAILS

No parameters required. Returns account info such as username, email, account type, form count, submission count, and usage limits.

Example prompt:

"Show me my Jotform account details and current usage"

---

3. Browse Activity History

Fetch user activity records for auditing, filtered by action type and date range.

Tool: JOTFORM_GET_USER_HISTORY

Key parameters:

• action -- filter by action type (e.g., formCreation, userLogin, formUpdate, apiKeyCreated, userLogout)
• date -- predefined date range: lastWeek, lastMonth, last3Months, last6Months, lastYear, all
• startDate -- custom start date in MM/DD/YYYY format
• endDate -- custom end date in MM/DD/YYYY format
• sortBy -- sort order: ASC or DESC

Example prompt:

"Show me all form creation activity from the last month, sorted newest first"

---

4. Manage Folders and Labels

Browse the folder/label structure for organizing forms.

Tool: JOTFORM_GET_USER_FOLDERS

Key parameters:

• add_resources -- set to true to include label resources (forms) in the response
• owner -- owner username or workspace/team ID (conditionally required for some accounts)

Jotform has migrated from folders to labels. This tool uses the GET /user/labels endpoint.

Example prompt:

"List all my Jotform folders with their forms included"

---

5. Check Plan Limits and Pricing

Retrieve details about a specific Jotform system plan to understand limits and capabilities.

Tool: JOTFORM_GET_SYSTEM_PLAN

Key parameters:

• planName -- the plan to inspect (required): FREE, BRONZE, SILVER, GOLD, or PLATINUM

Example prompt:

"What are the limits on the Jotform GOLD plan?"

---

6. Full Form Management Workflow

Combine tools for comprehensive form management:

1. Discover: JOTFORM_GET_USER_DETAILS -- check account type and usage limits
2. Browse: JOTFORM_GET_USER_FORMS -- list and search forms with filters
3. Organize: JOTFORM_GET_USER_FOLDERS -- view folder structure with add_resources=true
4. Audit: JOTFORM_GET_USER_HISTORY -- track form creation and modification activity
5. Plan: JOTFORM_GET_SYSTEM_PLAN -- compare plan features before upgrading

Example prompt:

"Show me my account usage, list my recent forms, and tell me if I'm close to my plan limits"

Known Pitfalls

Pitfall	Details
API key authentication	Jotform uses API key auth, not OAuth -- ensure valid API key is configured in the connection
Folders migrated to labels	The folders endpoint now maps to Jotform's labels system; the API behavior may differ from legacy folder documentation
Date format for history	Custom date filters use MM/DD/YYYY format (e.g., 01/15/2026), not ISO 8601
Plan name must be exact	planName values are case-sensitive enum: FREE, BRONZE, SILVER, GOLD, PLATINUM
Pagination is offset-based	Forms use limit/offset pagination, not cursor or page-based
Owner field conditionally required	JOTFORM_GET_USER_FOLDERS may require the owner parameter for workspace/team accounts
